Under Income tax two types of allowances can be segregated
1. Allowances not depend on the expenses which the exemption fixed by the Income tax itself like Transport allowance,Child education allowance those are amount fixed by the Govt
Some of the allowances are based on the expenses incurred please refer u/s.10(14)
